11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,
12 instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world;
19 This you know, my beloved brothers. But let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger;
13 No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
11 A fool vents all of his anger,but a wise man brings himself under control.
27 but I beat my body and bring it into submission, lest by any means, after I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected.
21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue;those who love it will eat its fruit.
6 so then let us not sleep, as the rest do, but let us watch and be sober.
16 A fool shows his annoyance the same day,but one who overlooks an insult is prudent.
7 For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.
25 Every man who strives in the games exercises self-control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.
8 Watch yourselves, that you do not lose the things which we have accomplished, but that you receive a full reward.
2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.
12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of this darkness, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
28 Like a city that is broken down and without wallsis a man whose spirit is without restraint.
27 Do not turn to the right hand nor to the left.Remove your foot from evil.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith,
23 gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
1 "I made a covenant with my eyes,how then should I look lustfully at a young woman?
5 Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;
6 and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control patience; and in patience godliness;
7 and in godliness brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.
32 One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty;one who rules his spirit, than he who takes a city.
